Fall/Winter 2018 Workshop Series
Exploring Color: Silk Painting with Jess Beebe
We will be working with color combinations on paper exploring the interaction of color before we take paint to silk scarves. The process of silk painting is much like watercolor and the application of salt at the end adds textural interest. Color is a deeply personal and provocative element with a power that shifts as it is experienced with other colors. We will explore these relationships through meditative association and color exercises on paper. The finished silks (21” square) may be worn or hung as wall art.
Jess Beebe is an artist and clothing designer who creates hand printed and dyed textiles. Her clothing line, Linea designs was created in 2001 as a way to explore textiles, color and form. She studied art and literature at PSU with an immersion in art and color theory in Florence, Italy then finishing at OCAC, with textile design. A student of Shadow Yoga since 2001, informs her work in meditation.
